Answer :
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. As-salāmu ‘alaykumwa-rahmatullāhiwa-barakātuh. In principle, it is permissible for one to sit and eat on a table. However, we should try to emulate the Prophet sallallahualaihiwasallam as much as possible and it has been narrated that he never dined at a table.

عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: «مَا عَلِمْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكَلَ عَلَى سُكْرُجَةٍ قَطُّ، وَلاَ خُبِزَ لَهُ مُرَقَّقٌ قَطُّ، وَلاَ أَكَلَ عَلَى خِوَانٍ قَطُّ» قِيلَ لِقَتَادَةَ: فَعَلاَمَ كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ؟ قَالَ: «عَلَى السُّفَرِ»
